Capitalism on the road to perdition

Dec 27, 2019 1 min read

To the editor:

We have before us Finance Capitalism and Industrial Capitalism.

When they are operated together in the extreme, one has nothing less than Criminal Capitalism in action!!

Every moral consideration characteristic of ordinary humanity is ignored in favor of more money now!!

The home address of Criminal Capitalism is currently simply that of the Republican Party!!!

Among their most effective criminal tools for moving the wealth of We The People from the Hands of the Many into the Hands of the Few are :

* Establish and promote the speculative stock market

* Favor and enable the relentless extension of corporate conglomerates

* Facilitate the means for determined union busting

* Encourage the development of absurdly expensive health care

* Reduce or eliminate corporate taxation, replace with corporate subsidies

* Execute outrageous “sweetheart” contracts with war materials suppliers

* (L but not L) : Protect the fossil fuels industry — at the possible risk of our continued existence.

Remember, ALL of the money involved comes straight out of YOUR pocket in amounts from pennies to megabucks!
